@envienotivy It's perfectly normal that you can't understand why you're fancasting an unknown actor who's only been an extra in two series for Elizabeth Olsen's role
@RekhaaRani26@lizze_11 Elizabeth is releasing 4 projects in just 2026-2027: Doomsday Secret Wars and the hugely budgeted, massively cast Panic Carefully, in which she will star alongside Julia Roberts, as well as the main lead in Seven Sisters, which has assembled one of the most expensive casts at FX

@RekhaaRani26@lizze_11 She's 24 and will wait for both Secret Wars and X-Men filming to finish before starting her next project outside of the MCU, which means at the earliest 2029
One of the three main protagonists of Secret Wars, an MCU character, one of the three biggest faces of the universe, the only female character who makes people buy tickets. She’s a fucking legend
Of course, everyone adores Elizabeth Olsen; just look at her 2026-2027 projects: she's returning with Doomsday, she's co-starring with Julia Roberts in Panic Carefully, and she's also the lead in Seven Sisters, which has one of FX's best series casts in recent years.
@95IMPULSE You’d better get used to this, because Elizabeth is going to be the lead in the biggest film in Marvel history. You can’t even handle her return in Doomsday I wonder how you’re going to cope with her role in Secret Wars.
@marvelgirlxo@SimonMaxmoff Oh, come on Wanda’s massive popularity is solely down to Elizabeth Olsen. Even if you combined the impact of all the other female characters in the MCU, it wouldn’t amount to a quarter of the impact created by Elizabeth Olsen’s Wanda.
@Dobcombulator@liliane1207 This changed years ago. Currently, RDJ, Tom Holland, and Elizabeth Olsen are the main faces of the MCU. The difference between RDJ and Elizabeth with the others is that they made characters who weren't prominent in the comics the face of the MCU.
@Dobcombulator@liliane1207 It's not 2019 anymore, but if you absolutely need an example, Wanda vs. Thanos was one of the top 5 scenes in Endgame, but as I said, that era is long gone. In the last 5-6 years, Elizabeth has become one of Marvel's top 3 faces.
@liliane1207@BatCenMes2492 Of course, there are facts I’m basing this on; no one else in the MCU has received as much investment as Wanda has over the last five years and the comic book arcs support this as well.
@liliane1207 It is a fact that Elizabeth Olsen, alongside RDJ and Tom Holland, is one of the primary faces of the MCU. Steve Rogers is no longer at the core of the narrative, but Wanda serves as a main lead in both of the films and she might even be the central protagonist of Secret Wars
